Lion Tacos On the Menu In Tucson

Posted by samzenpus on from the a-meal-fit-for-a-king-of-beasts dept.

If you've always wanted to try to eat a lion, but were afraid of being eaten first, a Tucson restaurant has just the thing for you. Boca Tacos y Tequila is now offering customers lion tacos. From the article: "Boca Tacos y Tequila has already drawn the ire of animal rights activists on its Facebook page for the announcement. But owner Bryan Mazon says that curious customers are already making reservations to try the new delicacy, to be offered on 'exotic tacos night' - every Wednesday starting from February 16."

    It's probably bear or something else unusual, sold as Lion. Meat that high up on the food chain typically tastes awful.

    I am pretty sure you are more of a man by just ordering them. King of the Jungle, HA, more like king of my lunch with rice and beans. Take THAT food chain!

    So, we eat animals that live far worse lives than lions. Veal immediately comes to mind.
    Why exactly are people getting in an uproar over this?

    There's too many of them roaming around, might as well eat them! Alternative of killing them and letting them rot is even more wasteful.
